Born in Berlin, Germany, Luis Zwick started playing football at the age of seven with Teltower FC 1913 where he played as a youth before switching to Hertha 03 Zehlendorf in 2009. Initially playing as a left midfielder, it wasn't until 2007 that he became recognised as a goalkeeper.

The new season kicked off with Jackie McNamara giving debuts to Luis Zwick, Mark Durnan and Coll Donaldson with Rodney Sneijder, Darko Bodul and Simon Murray left on the bench. For Aberdeen, ex United midfielder, Willo Flood returned as captain, with David Goodwillie dropping to the bench.

Manager Ray McKinnon made two changes from the side that defeated Ayr United in midweek as the side looked to make it a hat-trick of wins at Palmerston. Paul Dixon came in for Jamie Robson, while Ali Coote replaced Alex Nicholls who, like Robson, dropped to the bench. Also on the bench were Lewis Toshney and Bair Spittal returning from suspension and Injury respectively. Making way for them were Van der Struijk and Wato Kuate.
